StudiCare-Belonging" is a new online training programme to promote the mental health of students. The programme was developed at Ulm University in the Department of Clinical Psychology and Psychotherapy as part of a research project by the German Centre for Mental Health (DZPG).

The free, low-threshold digital programme is aimed at students who want to reinforce their sense of belonging and counteract loneliness in everyday student life. Over the course of several weeks, participants work through the content of the online training programme and accompanying questionnaires.

The training is being conducted as part of a scientific pilot study (randomised controlled trial, RCT) to test whether the programme is helpful and effective. In addition to direct participation, there is also an active control group that receives access to the same content after an eight-week waiting time). All participants complete a total of five online questionnaires at four-week intervals.

Students can now take part in the online training programme and register online to receive further information.

The Wings for Life World Run starts worldwide on 10 May at 1 pm - a unique run for a good cause. The special thing about it is that 100% of the entry fees go directly to spinal cord research. Thousands of people will be running around the world at the same time, many of them via the so-called App Run, in which you can take part from anywhere.

The event also offers Ulm University's running community an exciting opportunity to get active together and be part of the global movement. The existing running groups in University Sports could not only run together, but also raise awareness for the important mission.
